That's reasonable. I can live with that.

Firewallstate,
Yep as playdayz says, by request it can be removed and stay off.

Sorry Larry, Psync now up to version 2.1 with changes that reflect UTC as a choice for hardware clock (and follows first setup window tick box). The report window reflects this and will update accordingly from the net._________________Rob

Sorry Larry, Psync now up to version 2.1 with changes that reflect UTC as a choice for hardware clock (and follows first setup window tick box). The report window reflects this and will update accordingly from the net.

That should be included in the update then, eh? I had seen some discussion.

It is too confusing for newbies and experienced people too when trying to install and test LAN/WAN/NAS/SAN communicating applications when not knowing how to manipulate that F/W.

It would be in everyone's best interest to leave it off and allow the user to select the time-frame for turning on the F/W,

One thing that should ALSO help is when the PUPPY F/W is turned on, there should have been and there should be some explanation on how to disable it when necessary or when testing in needed. None exist, today when the F/W is activated in ANY Puppy. A pop-up on activation/deactivation directions-message would be wise and beneficial. Further, useful messages like this should NOT be considered to be bloat, either.

Hope this helps._________________Get ACTIVE Create Circles; Do those good things which benefit people's needs!

It's just that firewallstate tray icon has a menu entry now to close and remove the app itself. i.e. it doesn't reappear after a reboot.

There is a On/Off for the firewall in the right click menu if the firewall is installed. This is where I started with this small app, I was testing LAN and Printers on network. _________________Rob
